Overview
Placeholder overview text. Pub Street is the neon-lit heart of Siem Reap's Old Quarter, a compact strip and surrounding lanes packed with bars, restaurants, foot massage parlors, and street food stalls. It's where most visitors end up after a day of temple-hopping, whether for a cheap draft beer, a $2 fish foot spa, or a plate of Khmer street food.
The street itself is closed to traffic in the evenings and gets genuinely lively after dark, with live music spilling out of bars and vendor carts lining the side streets. It sits right next to the Siem Reap Night Market, making it easy to combine shopping, dinner, and drinks in one walkable evening.
